After a player discovers there is a hidden wall that requires 50 hits to open, another comes up with a simple yet smart way to open it faster.
Sporting the largest world in any of FromSoftware's games, Elden Ring is absolutely massive. Its enormous open world is filled with enemies, secrets, and locations around every corner; thus, Elden Ring players are constantly rewarded for their exploration efforts.
One constant in FromSoftware games is the message system, which allows players to write messages on the ground to help or hurt other players, or also make them laugh. However, these messages can also be used for trolling, such as a deadly Elden Ring message under a ladder. Many of these trolling messages are placed in front of most of the game's walls, proclaiming that the walls are hidden paths for players to discover.
While many of these messages will often be placed to fool players into hitting a solid wall, one gamer actually discovered an Elden Ring hidden wall that requires 50 hits to open. Found in Volcano Manor, the wall finally opened a hidden path after a player smashed their weapon against it for minutes on end. Obviously, this is a tedious process, but another player has already figured out an ingenious way to break through the wall in mere seconds.
Since Redditor daxramas knew the wall would take plenty of hits to break through, they came up with a brilliant idea to speed up the process. In Volcano Manor, there is an enemy NPC that will drop Ghiza's Wheel, a massive wheel with rotating blades adorning it. The weapon's art can be activated to spin the blades, making for a buzz saw that cleaves through enemies. Daxramas came up with the idea to use this weapon's fast attacks to break through the wall, making quick work of the hidden path when compared to the 50 hits it took previously.
Elden Ring is nothing if not an open-ended experience, with numerous ways for players to complete each encounter and obstacle. While some players opt for pure melee combat to bring down foes, others will use spellcasting, incantations, and even ranged weapons to their advantage. Some players may come up with a strategy to kill an enemy in a risky but quick manner, while others play situations cautiously. Comparable to the best rune farming spot in Elden Ring, daxramus' solution to the problem was the quickest and smartest, once again showing the open-ended nature of the game.
While open world games create hilarious situations like a gargoyle jumping an Elden Ring player to death, they can also cause situations where a player may need to hit a wall an insane amount of times. The true takeaway from the discovery is that players need to use daxaramus' method on potentially every wall in the game, as the durable wall suggests there could be hidden walls everywhere.
Elden Ring is available for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
